I would say Hewitt, if we are just talking about pure athleticism. He is very quick around the court, and he can hit some great shots on the run, which I would attribute to some amazing natural athletic ability. Also, his parents are very good athletes and I have heard he is a good aussie rules football player.

Schuettler has a good set of wheels and is highly rated in this area - same could not be said of his game this year however. Can't count out Dad either, Agassi's mountain regime etc all very well known.

Gotta add Henman to this list, even though I dislike him. In the issue of DEUCE 2 years ago with the painting of Andre, Todd Martin had to take one asset from any player for any shot. (ie Coria's speed, Hewitt's heart, Sampras' serve, Agassi's return) For athleticism, he choose Henman in a nutshell. Now, I'm not saying he's right, but obviously he knows a thing or to more about the guys on tour than us. Roddick might be up there as well, I know he can dunk.

if anybody thinks samps isnt a great athlete they're off their noodle....the great athletes make it look easy just like pete did. anyone try and imitate that slam dunk overhead of his and hit it that hard, jump that high, etc.? i would love it if some of the really great athletes from other sports would get into the game. they would be the all courters and maybe there would be less grinders..Ed
